That includes the President (not Trump anymore obviously, lol). His show seems to be an accepted platform for politicians to share their messages and opinions, and they do just that every time they appear on Colbert. What's the problem?
But yeah....they have to try and reach as many people as possible in as many ways as possible. Kind of preaching to the choir with Colbert but who cares? It will make news and people will see clips of it. And it will get more attention than a press conference or MTP appearance.
I also think they need to start bombarding the airwaves with ads. They should've started those weeks ago.09/15/1998 & 09/16/1998, Mansfield, MA; 08/29/00 08/30/00, Mansfield, MA; 07/02/03, 07/03/03, Mansfield, MA; 09/28/04, 09/29/04, Boston, MA; 09/22/05, Halifax, NS; 05/24/06, 05/25/06, Boston, MA; 07/22/06, 07/23/06, Gorge, WA; 06/27/2008, Hartford; 06/28/08, 06/30/08, Mansfield; 08/18/2009, O2, London, UK; 10/30/09, 10/31/09, Philadelphia, PA; 05/15/10, Hartford, CT; 05/17/10, Boston, MA; 05/20/10, 05/21/10, NY, NY; 06/22/10, Dublin, IRE; 06/23/10, Northern Ireland; 09/03/11, 09/04/11, Alpine Valley, WI; 09/11/11, 09/12/11, Toronto, Ont; 09/14/11, Ottawa, Ont; 09/15/11, Hamilton, Ont; 07/02/2012, Prague, Czech Republic; 07/04/2012 & 07/05/2012, Berlin, Germany; 07/07/2012, Stockholm, Sweden; 09/30/2012, Missoula, MT; 07/16/2013, London, Ont; 07/19/2013, Chicago, IL; 10/15/2013 & 10/16/2013, Worcester, MA; 10/21/2013 & 10/22/2013, Philadelphia, PA; 10/25/2013, Hartford, CT; 11/29/2013, Portland, OR; 11/30/2013, Spokane, WA; 12/04/2013, Vancouver, BC; 12/06/2013, Seattle, WA; 10/03/2014, St. Louis.

As far as really funny Republicans go, the only two I can think of are Trey Parker and Matt Stone from South Park. But they do what whatever they want. They're not cheerleaders for the Republican Party or anything like that. In fact, a lot of people didn't even know they were Republicans. I figured they were based on Trey directing a Dennis Prager short-film in the 90's, and Cartman's hatred of hippies. But "People For The American Way." a liberal advocacy group, didn't know and gave them a "Freedom" award last year...causing Trey to "come out" as a Republican as he accepted the award: http://en.protothema.gr/south-parks-trey-parker-matt-stone-come-out-as-republicans-to-a-room-full-of-hollywood-elites/

In fairness, being a funny right-wing show is probably difficult. Colbert, Stewart, et al, were very good at weaving humor into BS and injustice. But it's hard to make jokes about the "injustice" of marriage rights for gay people, health care for the poor, etc. How do you make a joke that resonates with the anger your viewers have that a lazy poor person got tumor removed despite not having a job that pays for health care?1995 Milwaukee 1998 Alpine, Alpine 2003 Albany, Boston, Boston, Boston 2004 Boston, Boston 2006 Hartford, St. Paul (Petty), St. Paul (Petty) 2011 Alpine, Alpine

If soul-eater is removed, Pence takes his place and the GOP is still the party in power. That's how the Constitution works, right?

One British official with knowledge of Barr’s wish list presented to London commented that “it is like nothing we have come across before, they are basically asking, in quite robust terms, for help in doing a hatchet job on their own intelligence services
